Today in art term 4 we started studying about Henri Rousseau.
Henri was a world-famous painter who lived in France. He gradually became more and more popular as his paintings improved. We watched a 6-minute video about him twice, second time was to take notes of words we don't know. Anyways, more about Henri.
He created cool paintings every year to show them off at the yearly exhibition. Most of the time, the other artists mocked him. But, after a while, there was one time that actually a lot of people loved it and credited him, and from there, he lived happily as other artists credited his works of art. Once, the man himself, Pablo Picasso threw a banquet for him.
After that, Henri lived a quiet live until his death in 1910. Henri died after he got gangrene in his leg.
